The Supreme Court admitted for hearing the appeal of a Bahawalnagar MPA on Tuesday, which challenges a decision by the Islamabad High Court disqualifying him.
It has sent notices to the attorney general to assist the court on this. It had earlier dismissed the IHC decision.
The petitioner, Qamar Sabzwari, has said that the IHC cannot disqualify an MPA from Bahawalnagar, and it is beyond its jurisdiction. His degree has been verified by his university, the petition adds.
